Artificial intelligence has become a mirroring mechanism that shapes perception, value, and reality. This exhibition focuses on the co-generation of creative subjects, technology, and objects through continuous feedback, transforming the pearl from a fixed entity into an ever-evolving, generative subject.

The exhibition is co-organized by the School of Design at the Central Academy of Fine Arts and Die Neue Sammlung - The Design Museum at the Pinakothek der Moderne, Munich. It originates from the interim results of the undergraduate course Jewelry Research: The Mirror Test—The Reflexivity of Artificial Intelligence at the School of Design. The participating artists include young faculty members, as well as doctoral, master's, and undergraduate students from the Central Academy of Fine Arts.
